1884 he was elected to the legislature on the
Farmers alliance ticket and the last cleo
ton was chosen as state senator.
MARCUS JOHNSON,
of Kandiyohi. was delegate to the ma
tional convention held in Chicago in 1880,
and member of the house of representa-
tlves in 1882. He is bachelor. His
name appears on the hotel registers in st.
Paul oftener than that of any other man in
the Northwest; but his visits have no pc
cullar' significance to them. and he comes
ana goes without exciting any special COM
ment. He is partial to widows and there
Is chance for some Of them this winter.
4. Y. EATON.
OF Wright, is entitled to the name of States
en-Afraid to- Have His Picture-Prnted.
But this is probably owing to the fact that
ne has been sick and is not IN good shape.
He declined to furnish photo for the gal
aXy. This will put the ladies to consider
able trouble. His fame as the handsomest
man in the state has gained wide circula-
ton, and, as a matter of course, the ladies
are just dying to get glimpse of him.
This will necessitate trip through the
snow, which will be uncomfortable and
liable to result in influenza for some of the
dear creatures. Probably the senator never
thought of this or he would have come gal
lantly to the front and joined the gang
whose intellectual and classic features adorn
this page. Senator Eaton has been the at
torney of Wright county for five years.
O. W. GIBSON
halls from Austin, and is a very modest
man. He don't want his picture printed
and his personal history he prefers to cover
with veil of mystery. 1t is well, how
ever. to have one modest man IN the legis-
lature. and DR.. Gibson is accorded that dis
tinguished honor by unanimous consent.
f. NJ. POPE,
of Mankato. don't want any special noto-
riety. He pulls back from the photogra-
pliers camera like a balky horse. and
intimates that he is not coming 10 st. Paul
for glory, but simply in the interest of his
constituents. 1t is just such modest and
conscientious men out of which presidents
are manufactured.
j. c, o. CHAPMAN,
of LIE Sueur, has been lost ever since the
election. and the most diligent inquiry has
failed to detect his whereabouts. Circulars
without number have been sent to him,
and LIE Sueur county people stopping at
the ST. Paul hotels have been
mportuned for information III
regard to him. Few of them had ever
neard OF MN ana none knew where he was
He may show up at roll call to-day. When
the clerk MARBLES the name of Chapman all
eyes will be instantly fixed upon him as he
answers, AYE, aye, sir" His long alb
sence has caused widespread comment and
hismysterious disappearance has awakened
the intense interest of the public. He is
the oldest man in the legisiature-being rs.
D. ". HIXON,
rf NJ ic old r., HOY I,o
statement in speech during the last cam
paign. that he had voted the Republican
ticket ever since he was II years old. This
is propably the reason he doesn't want his
photograph printed. AS they used to say
out in Colorado: He don't want 'em to
catch on to his whar'bouts back in the
states" When it is stated that Hixon was
born in Iowa one can readily account foi
the 70, 900 to 100, 600 Republican majorities
which used to be rolled up in that state i'll
his younger days.
